I am once again here asking for a product, fully expecting with yet another “you probably won’t find a Canadian alternative for this”. I was surprised with the smartwatch + fitness tracker options last time, so I think this might be worthwhile too.
Does anyone know of an energy monitoring plug? Too many of these are made in China by Chinese and American companies, so I’m hoping to find alternatives here.
Ideally, I’d also like to hook it up with Home Assistant, and either via Zigbee or Matter. If it’s WiFi-only, that’s fine too, but preferably not, cause I don’t want to add more WiFi devices on my network, if possible.
I’ve heard many say DLink’s a Canadian company but I guess we now know it’s Taiwanese. So I don’t blame ya there for mistaking it.
That said though, DLink is mired in controversies, and in my experience using any of their devices, they’re pretty terrible to use.
I am showing my age. I used to buy off them (client requests) for various products but that was 30yrs ago.
